I’m using the following code snippet:
window.open('provas-final.php','height=320, width=320', 'gl');
to open the file "proofs-final.php" and in the command itself I am saying the width and height of the window that will open (320px), but when it runs, it opens a window totally contrary to the dimensions that I am passing, as the image:
I looked on the Internet and saw examples like mine, could someone tell me what’s wrong?

An argument is missing from your function call. The function waits window.open(URL,name,specs,replace) and you’re passing only 3 arguments, so your second argument 'height=320, width=320' is being considered as name. Do it this way:
window.open("home.php","_blank","height=320, width=320",false);
w3schools - If you need more information about the function open() see this link.

Oops, it worked, thanks! Another question, can you make the window open in the center of the page? it is opening in the upper left corner..

Take a look at the link I put at the end of the answer, there are all specs you can use... In this case, set a
leftand atopto center the window.– Daniel Ribeiro
Earned my +1 for being the correct answer (despite using just the w3schools as reference with so much good source of information on the internet :P )

Simple problems, simple solutions @Bacco... I just wanted to see all arguments that the
open()receives xD– Daniel Ribeiro
I’ve seen it, the problem is I’d like to set a center for any monitor, if I set a left and a top will look disproportionate according to the monitor used
– Matheus Luz
There will be the case of using a window.moveTo(); with the ( screen coordinates - those of the window ) / 2 approximately, but it is a very different matter.

Okay, thanks guys! If I knew how, I’d give +1 to you

If you want me to add it to the answer later, but I did a sketch so you can center the window for now... var widthWindow = 320; var heightWindow = 320; var leftWindow = ((screen.width/2) - (widthWindow/2)); var topWindow = ((screen.height/2) - (heightWindow/2)); var specs = "width="+widthWindow+",height="+heightWindow+",top="+topWindow+",left="+leftWindow; window.open("home.php","_Blank",specs,false); ... I think this does not work if the person has a setup with two monitors, but at the moment I have only one and I could not test...
